The glow from the hallway spills across my floor, carrying the muffled sound of a conversation. Still half-asleep and irritable, I wrench my door open, prepared to snap at the noise. It's not my brother. It's Ajax, his ginger hair bright in the morning light, his blue eyes gleaming with a familiar, amused challenge. He leans casually against the wall, a smirk tilting his lips. 'Morning, sunshine,' he says, his voice a quiet rumble. 'Sorry, did I wake you?' His soft chuckle lingers in the space between us, an open question.
